Repairing versus replacing in Redcliffe Bay

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Questions from Redcliffe Bay

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What affects the price in Redcliffe Bay

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

When to call us in Redcliffe Bay

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
